DXA

We’ve clearly defined our DXA service by following a recommended gold standard protocol. This assures our scans are consistent and accurate from one patient to the next. With our DXA scans, you’ll discover the highest quality service for the lowest possible price – starting at just £65.

We offer two DXA services. Irrespective of which service you choose our scans are always performed to a consistently high standard by one of our DXA technicians.

DXA for the detection of osteoporosis – thisaims a low dose of X-rays at the bone, calculates the mineral content and then compares this to a person with similar attributes

DXA + Instant Vertebral Assessment (IVA) for the assessment of vertebral (spine) fractures– this is a rapid low-dose x-ray scan of the entire spine, taken in combination with a standard bone density test.

We’ve reduced the price of our DXA scans to help self-funders. So if you’re looking for guaranteed consistency, accuracy, and 24 hour reporting, you’re looking for one of our Affordable DXAs. Prices start at just £65.

We believe in keeping our service affordable across all our scans, so we’ve lowered our DXA prices for self-funding patients. But rest assured that while the price may have lowered, the quality and consistency stays remarkably high.

What is included?

We offer two types of scan under our Affordable DXA service, with prices starting at just £65. Both are performed under a stringent gold standard protocol to ensure consistency:

Done in just 30 minutes: Patients register, have a consolation with a DXA technician, who takes a few general measurements such as height and weight, and then have the DXA scan. It is quick, easy and takes just half an hour.

Consultant led: A Consultant Radiologist views all DXA scans and then creates a report. This is made available online to the referring clinician within one working day. Patients will be able to take away a printed copy of the scans.
If same day reporting is also required we may be able to provide this, however please give us a call on 020 7042 1888 to discuss.
